Hi, I'm in Kenya. I want to start a service where;<p>Users who would like to to receive sms ads can sign up. Users in turn receive mobile phone credit per sms ad that they receive.<p>Advertisers can then use my service(from the website) to target users with relevant ads. I'll then send this ads to the relevant users via sms.<p>I'll charge advertisers a constant service charge, profit margin plus cost per sms ad sent.<p>Questions
1.As an advertiser what things would you like to know about users in order to determine which users to send which ads to? eg age, marital status, gender etc<p>2.As a user would you be willing to join such a service. If yes, on what conditions<p>3.Any other advice, in biz or your thoughts are welcome.<p>anything,
Don't ever do this. We've got spam problems enough without getting more rubbish SMS spams. If you do this, you will earn the hatred of the entire populace who gets abused by it, because someone WILL abuse it.
For the guy who had asked about motivation.<p>Motivation as a user to join is<p>1.you get to discover products that you may truly be interested in. And<p>2.you get free talk time on your phone, say something like 5minutes of free talk time for every sms ad we send to you
